Characterization of ESR1 alterations in patients with breast and gynecologic cancers. (PubMed, Breast Cancer Res)
ESR1 alterations were most frequent in HR + /HER2- BC samples and missense mutations were more frequent in metastatic samples, consistent with their role in ET resistance and disease progression. ESR1 alterations co-occurred with therapeutically relevant alterations in other genes that may help inform clinical decision-making. Gynecologic tumors harbored ESR1 alterations that have prognostic and potentially therapeutic relevance.

Oncogenic Alterations in PI3K Signaling Emulated Optogenetically Recapitulate Some Phenotypic Changes in Mammary Epithelia. (PubMed, ACS Synth Biol)
Using this tool to mimic the mutation-specific dynamics in MCF10A mammary epithelial cells, we found that PI3K signaling patterns alone were sufficient to reproduce key features of the PIK3CA H1047R-associated EMT phenotype but not the ErbB2-associated proliferative phenotype. These findings suggest that the temporal encoding of pathway activity, not merely its magnitude, can drive some phenotypic changes in oncogenic progression, explain how distinct mutations within a common signaling pathway can produce divergent cellular phenotypes, and provide a workflow for interrogating the functional consequences of changes in signaling dynamics.

Therapeutic Strategies to Overcome Payload Resistance of Trastuzumab Deruxtecan in HER2-Positive Cancers. (PubMed, Cancer Sci)
Moreover, BB-1701, a novel HER2-ADC containing eribulin as a payload, to which N87 AR cells are sensitive, exhibited antitumor effects in N87 AR cells in vitro and in vivo. These findings indicate that ABC transporter-mediated drug efflux is an important mechanism underlying T-DXd resistance in HER2-positive gastric and lung cancer models. Furthermore, our study suggests that both targeting drug efflux pathways and utilizing alternative payloads may be effective strategies for overcoming T-DXd resistance in HER2-positive gastric and lung cancers.

Molecular Testing for Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma: What, When, How? (PubMed, J Gastrointest Cancer)
Molecular testing has become an essential component of modern iCCA management. Broad, early, and technically integrated molecular profiling-ideally performed at initial diagnosis and interpreted in an interdisciplinary (molecular) tumor board-is critical to fully realize the potential of precision oncology in BTC.
